I WANDERED LONELY AS A CLOUD...
What a gorgeous week it's been, another few days of socialising, fund raising and walking...oh and a bit of crafting too! Otherwise this would be a very short post, lol!
I might have accidentally bought some new fabric last week! It was from Pili Pala Fabrics based near Tenby, the owner Sinead happened to be in my town on business and she dropped it off for me, now that's good customer service eh?! What a nice lady she is, I had paid for postage so instead she gave me half a metre of a fabric I've bought off her previously. This daffodils fabric is one of hers:
Pretty huh? It should go well round these parts.
I bought the mosaic and the rainbow leopard was my freebie, both will come in useful.
I finished the last baby blanket so started another:
I only bought two balls of that variegated blue/grey so am eking it out with white DK, I quite like the effect!
Last Saturday was the first of the Pembrey markets as some of you may have seen on FB:
It was a successful couple of hours - I took £208 and sold the quilt that's behind my head to the lovely beekeepers who run another stall. I'm nearly a third of the way to my 2025 target of £1500, if I do that then that'll take my fundraising to over £10k. There are two more stalls in April so we'll see how they go!
The tides here have been at their highest in recent days (9.32m yesterday) so when the sea goes out, it goes far far out. Hence our beach walk looked like this:
Where's all the water gone?! Isn't it amazing to think that if you walked straight ahead and kept going for a very long way, the next land you'd see would be Virginia or North Carolina. That's why, when the tide returns, there's a lot of Atlantic to come up this estuary. It was glorious to be out blowing the cobwebs off.
Hope you're all keeping well and have had a good week - may your crafting be stress free! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
